Nick: All digital IBOC was specified and documented by iBiquity years ago, so that's why you didn't see the basics repeated. Yes, the graphic at diymedia shows the differences I referred to.
As for a test, I'm not sure what you want to test. The Radio Magazine article was about ch-channel testing (IBOC aninterference to analog on the same channel) bit you are recounting problems with KRKO 1380 spilling onto adjacent channel KAST 1370. In either case, all you need to form a real world opinion are your ears.

Just add ignorance and stir. I don't believe they actually said anything much about the digital signal, so assumption of all digital IBOC can reasonably be added to that mix. (other details about demodulation of the analog signal are also missing) Audio examples would be nice, and might help to convince the doubters. http://www.radiomagonline.com/deep-dig/0005/broadcast-engineering-conference-radio-technology-forum-sessions/37600 offers descriptions of the conference sessions, but I haven't been able to quickly track down any more detailed results than what Dennis linked to. http://diymedia.net/old/stuff/AM_IBOC_Test.pdf has a nice graphic on the first page which I assume is what Chuck is alluding to in terms of the difference between present IBOC and all-digital IBOC. Is that the case Chuck? If so, perhaps you could suggest a listening test that could be done with today's systems (thereby saving me the trouble of doing it incorrectly)? Those secondary OFDM subcarriers already sound pretty nasty on KRKO's signal this morning, and they would be stronger in the digital only version. best wishes, Nick At 05:03 22-04-16, you wrote: >... > >I don't see how you can correlate hybrid IBOC to all digital IBOC. >What you hear with KRKO/KAST is different from what you will hear >with all digital as the power spectrum and subcarrier levels are >vastly different. > >Chuck >________________________________________ >From: IRCA <irca-boun...@hard-core-dx.com> on behalf of Nick >Hall-Patch <n...@ieee.org> >Sent: Friday, April 22, 2016 4:51 AM >To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America >Subject: Re: [IRCA] All-Digital AM Co-Channel Lab Test Results Unveiled > >I presume "D/U" abbreviation in this piece refers to "desired / undesired"? > >I wonder if someone recorded audio from those tests, rather than just >tossing dB's around?
